GOOD: Coming home with a huge stack of free D&D books including all the new 4th Edition stuff thanks to an old chum who works at WoTC.

BETTER: Coming home to find an enthusiastic letter from the HR rep of WoTC asking to arrange a phone interview less than 24 hours after you submitted your resume'.

BEST: Realizing that the subject line of said e-mail is referring to a position in the company that's a few levels UP from the one you applied for!!!

It took me a good 10 minutes to stop shrieking like a schoolgirl and reply to her request for a phone interview :)

I know that a phone interview is really nothing, like just the first of a 5 or 6-step process of interviews, but hot dammit this is the furthest I've ever gotten with them and I'm STOKED!

Congrats! My ex-boyfriend used to work at WotC, as did a few of the Expedia employees that I vanpool with. From what I've heard, it's a fun place to work! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you!

Rock on! A guy I know works there. From what he says, it's a great place to work, except that time raw sewerage backed up into their data center.

But imagine all the poop you'd get to experience first-hand!

So that's what happened to Magic Online 3.0.... I've been wondering.

If it provides great set-ups like that all the time, I'll be GOLDEN!

Well, if they call for a reference i'll be sure to tell them you have superpowers & poop solid gold twinkies. In case they need an extra push.

Pooping solid gold twinkies ALWAYS requires an extra push!
